Grain Mill Automation
« on: April 14, 2020, 01:28:43 pm »
I put my mill on arduino load cells, to use the hopper as a scale. I then integrated it into my brewing system to know the malts and how much. The final installment was using air to push the milled grain into the mash tun.

Inital concept and implementation:
